Humans and possibly a few other primates are the only animals that get a rash from poison ivy. Your dog and cat donât get it, nor do birds, deer, squirrels, snakes and insects.

Urushiol-induced contact dermatitis is the allergic reaction caused by poison ivy. In extreme cases, a reaction can progress to anaphylaxis. Around 15% to 30% of people have no allergic reaction to urushiol, but most people will have a greater reaction with repeated or more concentrated exposure.
